mousmeI now have ten weeks to finish my pre-move purge and pack my stuff. If we don't find a new tenant for my place in the interim, then I will be able to sand and re-varatan my floors after I've moved out, which will simplify my life considerably.
Since this weekend's plans have fallen through, I may hie myself off to Canadian Tire and buy a bunch of Rubbermaid boxes in which to house my books. I want to start packing, but I daren't leave cardboard boxes on the floor, where the cats may view them as fair game and pee on them. Especially not since they've developed good litter box habits: no sense leaving temptation lying in plain sight. Rubbermaid bins seems like a reasonable compromise, and I can always use them for something else later (vermicomposting or something).
I did a purge of the bathroom cabinets yesterday, and today, once I get back from taking George to the vet, I am going to attack some of the kitchen cupboards. The plan for the rest of the week is to purge the kitchen and the two closets in the dining room, as well as the three remaining boxes of Stuff that are lurking in my apartment, trying to fool me with their obfuscation skills. I am not fooled. My Auspex is greater than their Obfuscate, clearly. ("There is nothing to see here. We are a bush. Move along.") I have way too much stuff that I don't like and don't use, inherited along the way from various people to whom it didn't seem polite for me to say "no." So out it's all going to go. The less stuff I have, the less I have to move.
